Now that Avengers: Infinity War has come out on home release, Marvel has been dropping all sorts of fun featurettes online. The first one is talking about why Thanos is one of the best villains that Marvel has made so far — mostly because everything exists to fight him. The Avengers exist because of Thanos.

Next we get a more behind-the-scenes look at the villain, and it’s really amazing how all of the visual effects make this character look pretty realistic. They also praise Josh Brolin and his ability to bring this character to life via motion capture.

Summary: As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
